Summary
McAfee is committed to supporting the Microsoft release cadence for Windows Server 2016 and we are working closely with Microsoft to ensure that McAfee software and hardware products are fully compatible with Windows Server 2016.
To ensure release quality, all new releases that Microsoft publishes for Windows Server 2016 require full validation by the individual product teams, with the goal of providing zero day support for all Windows Server 2016 releases over time for those products that do not currently offer this cadence.
Any late breaking changes the Microsoft implements to a release, or any unresolved compatibility issues raised by McAfee with Microsoft around a scheduled release, could lead to schedule changes that will be documented and updated in this article. Additional information about Windows Server 2016 support for McAfee products will use standard communication methods including the Support Notification Service (SNS).
